Course Description
Learn to transform and repurpose spaces on our new Interior Design course.
- Develop design proposals, working across a range of interior spaces such as restaurants, hotels, retail spaces and museums.
- Repurpose existing spaces in the public sphere - finding new uses for old buildings is a key skill.
- Enrich your learning with opportunities for practical work experience.
Our BA (Hons) Interior Design course focuses on existing buildings and spaces, and finding innovative ways to use them.
We'll explore the experiential qualities of the spaces we use every day - lighting, environment, materials, finishes - and how these are used to create mood or ambiance.
As a budding interior designer, you'll apply your design skills to a broad range of interiors, such as hotels, restaurants, exhibitions, retail and shop fitting, offices and commercial premises, museums, and galleries.
